La pasé muy bien, en un lugar muy tranquilo, con mucha naturaleza cerca, las personas son maravillosas y las instalaciones son muy bonitas y cómodas.

This experience was far from what I expected. Pedro was never home and only communicated through WhatsApp, which made some things a bit complicated. The place is quite far from the city, and the only store “nearby” requires a bike ride to get to unfortunately, the bikes available are old and don't work very well. The neighbors are kind and helpful people, but they have access to the house whenever they want, which can feel a little uncomfortable at times. That said, if you're someone who enjoys nature, peace, and being away from everything, this could still be a good experience.

A very positive experience, ideal for gaining independence. My first few days helped me improve my English with the friendly neighbors and become more self-sufficient. The tasks are simple, although the instructions were a bit unclear at first when I was alone. The host, Pedro, isn't present (I only saw him once), but he checked in every day via WhatsApp to ask what we had done. The arrival of a volunteer couple after my first week there created an international atmosphere. I recommend it if you're looking for personal growth and autonomy rather than a group-focused experience.

My stay was really lovely. I mostly did gardening, which I truly enjoyed, though I didn't work on the sauna. Everyone there was incredibly kind and made me feel very welcome. The area is beautiful, with many lakes. There's a supermarket in Saukkola—about a 30-minute bike ride (you can borrow a bike!), or you can often join a neighbour driving there. As agreed upon, you're responsible for your own groceries and cooking. :) I had a room of my own and the bed was really comfortable! Overall I had a great stay and I hope there will be many other volunteers in the future, thanks for everything!
